When I do that my head seems to clear. Or, I take a break and get out - take a walk, visit a museum, just get some space to clear the clutter out of my head. Good luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01630002559632588411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686403090969704623.post-54240468293768115602011-08-08T09:07:58.098-04:002011-08-08T09:07:58.098-04:00I've had lost Mojo quite a bit this year and l...I've had lost Mojo quite a bit this year and like you, don't really know what happened to it. I like to do the timer too. 20 minutes on one project, get up and do 20 minutes of something else-like housework or laundry. I like to do an instant gratification project...potholders, book bags, something that can be done in one sitting. <br />Good luck!Judy D in WAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701249059016985117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686403090969704623.post-30772014166828837042011-08-08T08:54:10.878-04:002011-08-08T08:54:10.878-04:00Maybe you need to cut back on the complicated blue...Maybe you need to cut back on the complicated blue stars ie do one a day as you do your other sewing. That way you'll still get the blocks done but you won't be stressing over them. And, pick an easier pattern to work on along with them. They look fabulous... as does the wonky blocks to the right.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04758275644964547751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686403090969704623.post-80243490282687266642011-08-08T08:50:06.296-04:002011-08-08T08:50:06.296-04:00I tidy up my sewing room and always come across so...I tidy up my sewing room and always come across something I'd like to work on or a magazine that I had flagged with a project to start cutting.Quilter Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16870660916547202929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686403090969704623.post-114440795101783532011-08-08T08:37:31.949-04:002011-08-08T08:37:31.949-04:00I do what Jo does - I promise myself that I'll...I do what Jo does - I promise myself that I'll work 20 min on a bugger project everyday - if I feel like quiting I do - but sometimes I stay! Also - I start a book on cd that is really - really good - the rule is though - that I'm only allowed to listen if I'm working on the offending project. Finally - when all else fails - I call my bqf (best quilter friends) to cheerlead me through - maybe they'll come sew with me - or just remind me why I need to get the project done!Nina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316034317827146338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686403090969704623.post-84305803684611773452011-08-08T08:29:17.632-04:002011-08-08T08:29:17.632-04:00When I loose my sewing zip, I do one of two things...When I loose my sewing zip, I do one of two things...I either start sewing 15 minutes everyday to get over the hump the project is stuck on or I just start cleaning house...after a dose of house cleaning I can find any quilting project, even one I am ready to set aside, appealing. I hate house cleaning.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00801251430263990186noreply@blogger.com
